X4429 Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from ROY. {Sir Henry Royce} ------------------ ROY {Sir Henry Royce} 11/MG/23.10.22 It would help us considerably in our arrangements for Material Supplies in connection with "Goshawk" if you could possibly urge the report on the Firth Axle Springs you have under observation. If you are not in a position to supply a report on such Springs, would you kindly advise when it is probable you can, as from present communications, it would certainly appear that we shall have to place a further order with Woodhead to ensure output.
